    I asked it to write an AVGN review of Minecraft

    The Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN) reviewing Minecraft

    AVGN's theme music plays as the camera fades in, revealing a frustrated AVGN sitting in his game room, holding a Minecraft pickaxe.

    AVGN: So, here we are, a game that's taken the world by storm: Minecraft. Now, I know what you're thinking, "But Nerd, Minecraft isn't a shitty old game!" Well, let me tell you, it's got its fair share of ass-trocious qualities.

    Footage of Minecraft gameplay starts playing

    AVGN: First off, the graphics. It's like a kindergarten art project gone wrong! It's 2021, and we've got games that look like a damn photo, but no, we're stuck with these blocky pieces of crap.

    AVGN: And then there's the gameplay. You're just dropped into this world with no explanation, no tutorial, no story. You're left with nothing but your fists and a whole lot of blocks. You punch trees, dig dirt, and build...whatever the hell you want.

    AVGN shows off some poorly built structures in-game

    AVGN: But you better watch out, because when the sun goes down, the monsters come out. Zombies, skeletons, and those goddamn exploding Creeper bastards!

    AVGN: (exasperated) Oh, come on! I spent hours building that!

    AVGN: And don't get me started on the crafting system. You have to combine items in this little grid, and if you don't know the recipe, you're screwed. I mean, who has time to memorize all these combinations?

    AVGN: But despite all that, there's something oddly...satisfying about this game. The exploration, the creativity, and the sense of accomplishment when you build something truly epic.

    AVGN: So, in the end, Minecraft might not be the worst game I've ever played, but it's still a blocky, pixelated, time-consuming mess that makes me want to take a pickaxe to my own head.

    ass-trocious

    :data-laughing:

    but also

    :desolate:

    Humanity is doomed

    Having just seen a computer spit out a pretty accurate and coherent style parody in like a minute it does feel pretty spooky- like it was only maybe a year ago when "Written by an AI" was synonymous with surreal incoherent babble

    Edit: It emulates the AVGN fairly accurately, but it definitely does not get the :chapo-boys:. Maybe my prompts are bad

      How did you get it to curse?

      Angry Video Game Nerd Reviews Mao's On Contradictions

      Intro theme song plays

      AVGN: Hey there, gamers! Today, we're gonna take a look at one of the most frustrating, mind-boggling, and downright infuriating "games" out there. I'm talking about Mao's "On Contradictions." (Sighs) Yeah, I know it's not a video game, but this philosophical work is so full of contradictions, it's like playing a game that's impossible to beat. So, let's dive right in!

      Cut to AVGN sitting on the couch with the book in hand

      AVGN: So, "On Contradictions" is written by Mao Zedong, the infamous Chinese communist leader. And, oh boy, does this book make me wanna throw my controller at the screen!

      The basic premise of the book is that contradictions are the driving force of societal development. Mao argues that contradictions exist in everything, and it's the struggle between these contradictions that leads to progress. Sounds simple enough, right? But just wait until you get to the gameplay.

      AVGN flips through the book, frustrated

      AVGN: The first thing you'll notice is that there's no clear structure to this book. It's like trying to navigate through a maze without a map! Mao jumps from one topic to another, making it nearly impossible to follow his train of thought. And don't even get me started on the translation. It's like reading a game manual that's been translated from Japanese to English by a five-year-old!

      Now, as you progress through the book, you'll encounter various "contradictions" that Mao tries to explain. But instead of clarifying things, it just adds to the confusion.

      AVGN gives an example

      AVGN: For example, Mao talks about the contradiction between the productive forces and the relations of production. He says that these contradictions will eventually lead to a revolutionary change in society. But then he goes on to talk about the contradiction between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie, the contradiction between the oppressed nations and imperialism, and so on.

      It's like trying to play a game with a million different objectives, and you have no idea which one to focus on! And the more you read, the more contradictions you'll find. It's like a never-ending cycle of frustration!

      AVGN throws the book on the ground

      AVGN: And just when you think you've reached the end of the book and things might start to make sense, Mao pulls the rug out from under you. He says that contradictions are not only the driving force of societal development but also the driving force of thought itself! So, basically, the whole point of the book is to confuse the reader and make them question everything they thought they knew.

      AVGN looks at the camera, irritated

      AVGN: So, there you have it. Mao's "On Contradictions" is like a game that's impossible to beat. It's confusing, frustrating, and leaves you questioning your sanity. If you're looking for a good read, I'd recommend sticking to the classics like "The Communist Manifesto" or "Das Kapital." At least with those, you know what you're getting into.

      Outro theme song plays

      AVGN: Well, that's it for today's review, gamers. Until next time, remember: if you want to avoid a world of confusion and frustration, stay away from Mao's "On Contradictions."

        I asked it literally to swear, here's areview of a previous text it generated when I asked if Hegel would win a battle against Diavolo if he was in Jojo and was granted a stand based on his philosophy

        spoiler

        Warning: The following text contains strong language.

        What's up, you shitload of fuck? It's the Angry Video Game Nerd here, and today, we're going to take a steaming dump on this godawful comment about some hypothetical Stand battle between that pompous ass, Hegel, and Diavolo from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. What a bunch of diarrhea dogshit!

        First off, who the fuck thought it'd be a good idea to throw a dead philosopher into a Stand battle? I'd rather have a buffalo take a diarrhea dump in my ear than try to make sense of this asswipe idea. So, they came up with this Stand called Dialectical Unity, which is supposed to represent Hegel's philosophy or some shit. It's like they took the most pretentious, convoluted concept and slapped it onto a Stand. Great fucking idea, guys!

        And then there's Diavolo's Stand, King Crimson. Yeah, we all know that fucker can erase time and has a face on his forehead. Real spooky, I shit my pants just thinking about it. So these two are supposed to duke it out, but the comment is just a load of donkey turds because it doesn't even give us a clear winner. It's like trying to beat a game without a fucking controller!

        So, let's recap: we've got a philosopher with a Stand based on his mind-numbingly boring ideas going up against an Italian mob boss with time-erasing powers, and the comment doesn't even have the balls to pick a winner. What a diarrhea dookie of a response!

        In conclusion, this comment is a pile of puke, a mountain of monkey spunk, and a shitstorm of snot. It's like taking a shit on your keyboard and expecting it to turn into a coherent fucking argument. Don't waste your time on this crapfest, and always remember to keep it Angry!

        The last phrase got me good.

          You clearly need to be clever at writing prompts to get gold out of it

            You also need to keep it very pop culture, otherwise it will channel a very generic voice. I'm getting a sense of its limitations tbh, it will always generate the most obvious stuff possible and if it can't incorporate your prompt, it will include it literally and abruptly.

        No clue, I was surprised to see ass and goddamned there too. Looking at what you got and some of my other attempts that very first result almost seems like a fluke. Yours sounds less like AVGN and more like a generic video game reviewer, though I'm guessing changing the topic to political philosophy made it more difficult to apply the AVGN style to it.

        The AI is very weird when you try to make it speak in the voice of real people. I tried to make it write a Zero Punctuation episode but I just got a generic, mildly snarky review not in the style of ZP at all. My first Chapo prompt didn't sound like Chapo at all either, but it feature all 5 hosts. Later I tried to make it do a riff on the Challenger disaster but got told that was too insensitive. Then I tried to make the Chapos talk about Tulip Mania, but got told it can't impersonate real people and got a generic podcast excerpt of Hosts 1-3 relating Tulip Mania to crypto
